On Saturday, we left our mooring at Great Kills Harbor and motored north to the Statue of Liberty. There was alot to see going through NYC- passed Manhattan island and up the East River through Hell Gate. We were able to sail after Hell Gate with a nice south wind. Anchored at City Island- a very scenic part of the Bronx with a history of ship building. We took a walk the next morning through City Island, then left for a 20 mile sail to Sheffield Harbor near South Norwalk, CT. On Monday, we sailed to Bridgeport, CT and took a slip on an island dock at Captain's Cove Seaport. Leiby needs to go home for this week to finish up some work- a big thank you to Tom for driving all the way here to provide a ride home for him, and to Glen and Robin for letting him stay at there place! Pictured: Leiby giving a ride to Ruefus in our dinghy, "Skippy"; the Manhattan skyline; Ruefus and the Statue of Liberty; and Darlene on a pillar platform at Sheffield Harbor.
